Nexus Uprising - Adventure's Launch, Questions Answered.

The Initiative is confirmed, in part, as a motivation for many fleeing the Milky Way in fear of 'future conflict' and the AI has been touted as "The most expensive insurance policy known to any sentient species".  Although the Reapers are not directly mentioned, this leaves little room for it to be anything else. 

I think this works PERFECTLY with the notion that the Initiative was once puerly for exploration, and the many-times mentioned 'exponential growth and expansion' of the AI could very well have been fueled by the fear of an upcoming conflict with these so-called 'Reapers'.

The species aboard the Nexus are also confirmed as Human, Turian, Salarian, Asari and Clan Nakmor - the last of which are contracted as a 'work force' whatever that entails.

Will be SUPER interesting to know how Quarians got to Andromeda...... and why was there an Uprising leading to Sloane Kelly making a Pirate bungalow? Ohh so many questions!!
